Miles Plumlee was spectacular in the first start of his NBA career on Wednesday with 18 points, 15 boards and three blocks in 40 minutes against the Blazers.

He had a double-double at halftime and made Robin Lopez of the Blazers look like Robin Lopez of the Suns tonight. Plumlee can get off the floor quickly and his teammates were getting him the ball in the post and throwing him alley-oops, allowing him to make a total of eight shots on his 14 attempts.

I still remember when he erupted for a National Championship. Seems like it was just yesterday.

It was yesterday...along with duke thumping unc by 32, unc finding out who they'd be playing in the nit, unc offering buy one get one free tickets for the nit home game in carmichael, unc getting slapped around by Dayton, and Ed Davis showing up on his agent's website shortly after he started wearing that fake cast so he didn't have to put nit runner up on his basketball resume...

The Suns could not make Jared Dudley more athletic or turn back the clock on Luis Scola so they made July deals using two of their more sought-after players to become more athletic and younger.

Green, 27, and Plumlee, 24, help meet goals to become more youthful and athletic.

Plumlee was a key trade component, particularly after McDonough and Assistant General Manager Pat Connelly watched him at the Orlando summer league this month. The 6-foot-11, 255-pound center averaged 10.0 points, 9.5 rebounds and 3.0 blocks in 27.0 minutes per game after getting miniscule time as a Pacers rookie in 14 appearances.

"He rebounds well and he's an athletic big man who can run the floor and get out and finish on the break," McDonough said. "I like him and his potential. He'll fit right in with how we want to play."

Quite a feat there 903. You rang both cojo and goeslower's chops with one forehand factslap.

We all know how &quot;accurate&quot; your prediction skills are anyway LOL...remember all those &quot;NIT&quot; references you repeated all through December, January and February regarding the Heels basketball team last season?
